I've just made these small changes:

- Reduced max CR in camp wars hex battles from 4000 to 3000

- Fixed weekly fame recovery in the upwards direction to be the same as in the downwards direction, i.e. 30% of the way towards 'base' fame, per week.

- Defenders now have the option to concede home tile battles. The actual looting isn't processed until the scheduled time, and the attacker still needs to set a squad to do so.

Looted cars after camp wars – car is moved to driver's current town/camp if it's not the same as the attacking camp.

Also the other related bits:

- in camp wars no-shows (where a squad is set but no players turn up), bounties are now paid based on the enemy squad value, not your own squad value

- extra code added to make sure that exploding vehicles can't have damage trying to emanate from below ground (which would shield the damage from everyone).

No, it won't make any change to that. It's just fixing a possible bug where no damage at all happened -- I think what caused it was the explosion being slightly below ground. I haven't changed anything for any case apart from a below-ground explosion. The way explosion damage is calculated, it checks how much each nearby vehicle and ped is shielded by the terrain.

In my most recent battle, the looted car went to camp, whereas the driver was from GW. I exited her though and she went to GW.
